Hello,

I read in a previous thread that the fsck tool is due soon. I have a machine with two btrfs partitons in a broken state that I would be willing to test the fsck tool on as soon as it is ready.

I have tried the super block tools to no success (all blocks are broken) and the patch to mount read-only does not work for me. I have backups so I'm not here to complain, but I would like to use the fsck tool when it is available for testing.

Thanks,
Michael

What are the actual problems you see trying to mount? There's a couple other tricks that may get things running.
